What's Up This Weekend?

Security
_________

Midnight
Watched your favorite comedy shows
Tired
Ready to run up to bed

But instead
The involuntary
Nervous system
Directs feet
Across
Cold ceramic
Kitchen floor
To activate
Security alarm
Even though
Unmonitored
Since disconnecting
The phone

If the little habits
Used to gain control
Of the chaos
Are breached
The screech
Will only be shared
By you and your intruder

Thursday, tonight, Daycreeper and The Lindsay are at Bourbon St., The Spikedrivers do the happy hour at Rumba, Adult Fiction is at Treehouse and Victorian's has national act Larry Keel and the Natural Bridge, accompanied by locals such as One Under, Cowboy Hillbilly Hippie Folk and others. By the way, Vic's made the unfortunate decision to change its name to Shrunken Heads.

Friday, Derek DiCenzo returns from the road to do his thing at Dick's. Six Gallery is at Ravari and Treehouse has Terribly Empty Pockets, Bookmobile and Kyle Sowash. Jesse Henry & the Royal Tycoons do the happy hour at Thirsty Ear. I will be begin the evening with The Randys at Rumba's happy hour and then later I am MCing the SoHud Music Collective show at Skully's with The Floorwalkers, Joey Hebdo and The Max Power Trio. They all get together at the end for some Led Zeppelin numbers.

Saturday, I will be out scouting bands for Comfest and it doesn't look like I'll be missing much.

Each night before you go to bed my baby
Whisper a little prayer for me my baby
